The chair comes from \u003cstrong data-start=\"292\" data-end=\"304\"\u003eWK Möbel, Deutsche Werkstätten für Wohnkunst,\u003c\/strong\u003e and is \u003cstrong data-start=\"358\" data-end=\"393\"\u003eattributed to Hans Eichenberger\u003c\/strong\u003e due to its design and construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"396\" data-end=\"960\"\u003eThe striking black wooden frame forms an almost architectural supporting structure: robust round timbers, clean lines, and visible connections give the design its graphic presence. In exciting contrast are the softly suspended leather surfaces of the seat and back. The combination of black, firm saddle leather and light, supple leather gives the armchair a special elegance and at the same time emphasizes its artisanal quality. The matching ottoman consistently adopts the materiality and construction and completes the ensemble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"396\" data-end=\"960\"\u003eThe condition is exceptionally beautiful: The black wooden frame of the armchair and ottoman is in \u003cstrong data-start=\"2124\" data-end=\"2149\"\u003efirst-class condition\u003c\/strong\u003e. The light leather shows only minimal, age-appropriate signs of use. The black saddle leather is also very well preserved; all seams and transitions between black saddle leather and light leather are flawless and undamaged. The armchair offers great seating comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"962\" data-end=\"1393\"\u003eHans Eichenberger is one of the most important Swiss designers of post-war modernism. His designs are characterized by constructive clarity, functional precision, and a restrained, durable aesthetic. This lounge ensemble also shows clear parallels to Eichenberger's work: the visible supporting structure, the separation of frame and seat skin, and the confident combination of comfort and constructive rigor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1395\" data-end=\"2013\"\u003eIn the 1960s and 1970s, WK Möbel included selected seating furniture and designs from the environment of the Swiss manufacturer \u003cstrong data-start=\"1520\" data-end=\"1532\"\u003eSträssle\u003c\/strong\u003e in its own program. This connection is documented, among other things, in the well-known \u003cstrong data-start=\"1617\" data-end=\"1653\"\u003eKing Chair by André Vandenbeuck\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is associated with both Strässle and WK Möbel. The present model also shows design and constructive proximity to Swiss designs of that time. However, a final archival confirmation of the specific model name and authorship is not yet available; the attribution is therefore deliberately cautious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2394\" data-end=\"2602\"\u003eA rare lounge ensemble with a strong sculptural effect - elegant, constructive and of high craftsmanship. Ideal for collectors, design-oriented living spaces and demanding interior projects.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"chairclassics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57933871087999,"sku":"2988","price":814.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/7158\/6175\/files\/WKEichenbergervintagesesselchairclassics1.jpg?v=1783529772","url":"https:\/\/chairclassics.com\/en-us\/products\/wk-mobel-leder-loungesessel-mit-ottoman-hans-eichenberger-zugeschrieben-1970","provider":"chairclassics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
